| *By the end of the first day post alert the major can see formations moving north, most overland but with the lighter wheeled vehicles using the roads in good order. AI estimated their arrival to the southern line would be sometime in the morning. Due to every attempted airstrike with manned or unmanned craft meeting with an energy weapon attack he knew he was more or less on his own. Though from time to time the roar of turbofan engines would fly low over the settlement, nap of the earth cruise missile strikes. | *By the end of the first day post alert the major can see formations moving north, most overland but with the lighter wheeled vehicles using the roads in good order.

| + | *Some measures are taken to harass the approaching forces however, within ten miles of the settlement having face little more opposition than farming hamlets and compounds that refused the evacuation orders the IFOR meets their first true military counters. 4x4 wheeled armored trucks, used for scouting or general transportation tucked into all manner of hiding places. Their 15.7mm and ATGM equipped remote weapon stations peeking over hills or behind walls, engaging lead or high value vehicles from ambush before driving off further down the road and setting up again. Mostly manned by locals with barely remembered service training or teenagers serving their two years, they none the less know of every perfect position to work their craft. The leading regiment, a mechanized one, soon finds its forward scout screen eviscerated by the wretched devices. Attempts to chase or suppress with flying craft, both old technology and newer built are only met with similar fates, one flyer commenting on a boy with a tube on his shoulder stepping out from a tree before downing his machine. But these acts merely delay and barely blunt the oncoming forces. | ||
